mushroom-shaped cloud
A mushroom-shaped cloud is a distinctive cloud formation characterized by a rising column of smoke and debris topped by a broad, round, outwardly spreading canopy. This cloud is most commonly associated with large-scale detonation of a nuclear bomb, although it can also occur with other types of explosions or volcanic eruptions. The formation is created by the intense heat of the explosion causing the surrounding air to rapidly rise, creating a vacuum that sucks in surrounding cooler air, leading to a turbulent, rotating airflow. This structures the cloud into a stem and a cap, resembling a mushroom.
